GACC August Dinner

GACC Monthly Meeting Notice - August 2022

Friends, don’t forget about our upcoming meeting on Saturday, August 20, at 6 p.m.


Phyllis Cosantino is our guest speaker. She will show photos and discuss this spring’s tour of Germany, France, Switzerland, Luxembourg and Belgium that celebrated the 300th anniversary of Germans settling in Louisiana. It was the Louisiana German Coast Tricentennial Tour, visiting the areas that our first German immigrants came from starting in 1721.

And Just in time for the GACC’s September 24 Oktoberfest, we will have a silent auction of a dirndl (women’s traditional dress), donated by member Celeste Apostolo. Ladies, we think you’ll like it! The meal will be from Gattuso’s Restaurant and of course we will have German beer and wine as well as our baked pretzels. We look forward to seeing everyone!

Visit Our Museum

Step inside the GACC Museum and go back in time to 1721, when German immigrants first settled in Louisiana. You’ll learn about the waves of German pioneers that followed them to establish homes, farms and businesses across the river from New Orleans. Entry is free of charge to our museum, open from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., Wednesday through Saturday.
